Cars Suck...
Got my car back today - it's got a new alternator, a couple new serpentine belts, new rear brakes (and turned rotors), a new valve cover gasket, plugs, plug wires, fuel filter, and probably a few things I've forgotten.
$1100.
And I opted out of an additional $500 worth of recommended preventative maintenance - break system flush, injector service, transmission service, and coolant system service.
To put the icing on the cake, the drive side headlight has been rattling in it's mount at idle, which is driving me absolutely nuts, but without tools and a well-light place to inspect it, I can't do anything about it.
I am so ready to get out of this apartment and into our house.
